Chapter 1484: Mystery of the Divine Thunder
"So it concerns the Master's great plan, no wonder you changed your mind. However, this person is the one the old monster Di Xue specifically named to be killed. Master should explain a bit! That old monster Di Xue is not a broad-minded person." Blood Poison smiled.
"Hmm, I have my own measures for this matter. However, before I clarify the matter with this Han kid, you keep an eye on him for me and don't let him find a chance to slip away. Otherwise, I'll have to go through a lot of trouble again." Mu Qing ordered.
"Yes, this small one will keep an eye on this person during this time." Blood Poison agreed respectfully.
Mu Qing nodded with satisfaction and waved at him.
Blood Poison then wisely exited the hall.
And the black-shadow woman, amidst the blurry black light, pondered for a moment before suddenly slapping the golden giant flower she was sitting on.
The giant flower trembled slightly, and suddenly spat out an ancient-looking golden mirror from its heart, with runes flickering faintly.
Mu Qing opened her mouth and spat out a ball of green energy.
Instantly, the golden light flashed, and the green energy vanished into the mirror strangely.
The mirror surface flashed with spiritual light, revealing a layer of golden mist.
After a long while, a wooden male voice came from the golden mist:
"Fellow Daoist Mu, what business do you have with me?"
Hearing this voice, Mu Qing laughed and replied:
"Brother Six-Foot! I wonder how your collection of Yin energy is going, and whether you can let that Ghost Crone condense enough Yin Armor Profound Ghosts before the agreed date."
"I have collected all the pure Yin energy from the lower layers. Although the Yin energy on the first layer is the thinnest, as long as I spend more time, I can gather quite a bit, enough for the Ghost Crone to condense eight thousand Profound Ghosts. Fellow Daoist Mu, why did you suddenly ask me about this?" The man was silent for a while before replying in a waveless voice.
"According to our plan, these eight thousand Profound Ghosts and Di Xue's ten thousand puppets are all cannon fodder, used to break through the obstruction of the Underworld River ghosts. But to break the barrier of the Underworld River Land, we need other methods. Relying only on the means we originally prepared is not very safe." Mu Qing didn't answer directly, but pondered for a moment before saying.
"How so? Could it be that Fellow Daoist Mu has found another good way to break the barrier?" The man reacted quickly, his voice changing.
"Hehe, Brother Six-Foot truly knows this little sister well. This little sister has indeed just gained something and wants to discuss it with you first." The woman laughed lightly.
"Gained something? Let me hear it first." The man's voice returned to being calm.
"I found an existence today that can drive the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder. Although the Underworld River barrier is powerful, the most troublesome part is the Underworld Demon Qi contained within it. This demon energy is exceptionally pure, and our original methods are not very safe. But if we have the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder, this demon energy will be nothing to fear." The woman's demeanor also became serious.
"The Evil-Warding Divine Thunder is indeed invincible in driving away demons and warding off evil. But in ancient times, when the Evil Dragon Tribe dominated the Spirit Realm, they almost wiped out all the Golden Thunder Bamboo in the Spirit Realm, and all existences that cultivated and possessed Golden Thunder Bamboo treasures were wiped out. How could someone who can drive the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder appear again? You couldn't have seen wrong, could you?" The man said slowly, seemingly somewhat disbelieving.
"Rest assured on this point. What this person cast is indeed the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder. This little sister still has this much discernment. The only problem is that this person doesn't seem to know the true driving method of the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder, only treating it as an ordinary thunder divine ability, and its power cannot even be exerted to one-tenth." Mu Qing suddenly sneered.
"Oh, in that case, it is possible. This person probably obtained the residual Golden Thunder Bamboo by accident and cultivated this divine ability by chance." The man called Six-Foot said calmly.
"Hehe, this little sister thinks so too. Otherwise, if this person could fully exert the power of the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder, even you and I would have to be wary. However, running into such a person at this time and place is also a great opportunity for you and me. It seems heaven has destined that our great plan will succeed." Mu Qing smiled beautifully.
"As long as what this person possesses is truly the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder, it is naturally a great help to us. But you suddenly told me about this, there must be some trouble, right!" The man suddenly asked.
"Brother Six-Foot is wise! Actually, I am not the first to know about this person. He is the one the old monster Di Xue specifically named to be killed, and he wanted me to detain this person's primordial spirit and send it to him. According to my guess, it likely has something to do with that Ghost Crone." Mu Qing smiled slightly.
"I see. Fellow Daoist Mu wants to control this person personally and wants me to mediate this matter." The man understood Mu Qing's intention in a blink of an eye and said.
"This little sister has exactly this intention. Brother Six-Foot should be very clear that this little sister is the only one among the four of us who knows the most about Golden Thunder Bamboo. Only by personally instructing this person can we let him master the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder as soon as possible, so that he can be of use when we launch our plan." Mu Qing said with a charming laugh, not hiding her true intention.
"Hmm, what you said makes sense. But this matter is significant, and the four of us must discuss it face-to-face, and the three of us must also see this person personally." The man was silent for a long time before answering.
"This is naturally fine. Let's meet at my residence in half a month. Brother Six-Foot will personally notify the Ghost Crone and Di Xue. At that time, this little sister will personally wait for the arrival of the three fellow daoists at the Wood Immortal Hall." Mu Qing said with a smile.
"Good, it's settled." The man agreed very crisply.
Then, the golden mist on the golden mirror converged, and no more sound came. The man called Six-Foot actually cut off the connection on his own without a word.
"Hmph, just as I expected. Brother Six-Foot doesn't care at all who controls this person. Thinking about it, this guy is the only one who doesn't fear the Evil-Warding Divine Thunder, so it doesn't matter. But the other two guys probably won't let go easily. However, since the person has fallen into my hands, thinking that I will hand him over again is wishful thinking." Mu Qing let out a low snort, and the sneer echoed in the empty hall.
Han Li sat beside a round table, staring at the person opposite him who was full of smiles and urging him to drink, speechless for a long time.
This was a scholar-like person, about thirty years old, who was urging Han Li to drink with a jade wine cup in one hand.
And on the round table, it was piled with all kinds of delicacies and a pitch-black wine jar, filled with amber-colored fine wine, with a fragrant aroma.
The green-clad maid named Bi'er was serving on the side.
"Come, come! Brother Han should taste our Wood Immortal Valley's Wood Marrow Wine. Although this wine is not as miraculous as the Yin Brake Tea, it is brewed from the marrow of ten-thousand-year spirit wood and also has the miraculous effect of refreshing and nourishing the essence. If Brother Han drinks a few more cups, you will know its wonders." The middle-aged scholar said with great enthusiasm.
"Senior Blood Poison, this junior cannot hold his liquor. I have already had a few cups, and if I drink any more, I will truly make a fool of myself." Han Li said helplessly.
The middle-aged scholar was actually the complete human form transformed by that blood flood dragon.
This person had followed Han Li immediately after he was arranged into a pavilion and immediately ordered this table of wine and food to be set up, eating and drinking here.
Han Li was in the other party's territory, so naturally, he couldn't refuse and could only bite the bullet and accompany this blood flood dragon to the banquet.
"Haha, with our cultivation, a few cups of spirit wine won't truly make us drunk. Brother Han, are you still holding a grudge about our fight earlier?" The blood poison suddenly tilted his head and said.
"Hehe, that little matter earlier. This junior has long forgotten it. How could I have any dissatisfaction with Senior because of that? Alright, this junior will drink another cup with Senior." Han Li could only say this.
Immediately, he picked up the wine cup in front of him and drank the spirit wine in the cup into his abdomen in one gulp.
The green-clad woman standing on the side immediately stepped forward, picked up the wine jar, and filled Han Li's cup again.
Han Li frowned slightly, but in the end, he didn't say anything.
Opposite him, Blood Poison smiled and said:
"Brother Han, just stay in our Wood Immortal Valley with peace of mind. Since the Master values Brother Han so much, she must have some use for you. At that time, no matter what the matter is, the rewards and such will definitely be heavy. Isn't that better than being a Saint Child of the Flying Spirit Tribe when you return to the ground? To be blunt, everything your tribe can give you, our Earth Abyss can also provide, and things they can't give, we can also give you. This is a rare opportunity for you!"
Blood Poison actually talked eloquently and acted as a lobbyist.
Han Li's mouth twitched, and he didn't answer this question directly, instead asking with a smile:
"I wonder which layer of the Earth Abyss this is. And the reason why Senior Mu Qing brought this junior to this place. Can Senior reveal a bit?"
"To say I don't know the Master's intention at all would be too fake. But this matter is indeed not convenient for me to say clearly right now. But Brother Han, rest assured, the Master doesn't intend to hide it for long either. At most, in half a month or a month, she will clarify everything to you. As for which layer this is, there is nothing to hide. This is the Black Mist Forest on the third layer of the Earth Abyss." Blood Poison replied without hesitation.
"Black Mist Forest! That dense forest shrouded in sinister mist, where it is said that once a person enters, they cannot come out!" Han Li's expression changed upon hearing this.
"Haha, it is indeed this place. I didn't expect this forest to have such a big reputation in your tribe. Actually, it's just that the Master cast some divine abilities and set up a few small restrictions in the forest." Blood Poison laughed.
"So that's how it is." Han Li gave a bitter laugh and didn't say anything more.
"By the way, there is one thing that Blood is very curious about. I wonder if Brother Han can solve my confusion." After urging Han Li to drink a few more cups of Wood Marrow Wine, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed with strange light, and he suddenly asked.
"Oh, what is Senior confused about? This junior will tell you everything I know." Han Li's heart trembled, and with the Great Expansion Technique running in his body, the slight drunkenness in his brain vanished without a trace!
